  • Eight 3 in. lengths (bottom stand)
  • Six Elbows
  • Six Tees

Add the yarn fringe. Cut a lot of strands of the thin and thick yarn that are twice as long as you want them to hang down from the stand. Fold each strand in half, loop the yarn around the top pole, and thread the ends through. Create a random pattern of yarn by alternating the thin and thick strands. Cover the entire top pole with yarn strands.

Don't worry that the ends look messy. Grab your scissors and trim all the yarn strands in a diagonal line.

Attach the embroidery hoops to the frame with zip ties. I used three sizes of embroidery hoops: small, medium and large.

Tape together tiny bouquets of flowers and greenery. Trim the ends so that you have minimal tape showing.
